Thats no good Alan, As Brock said it could of been Diesel.

I got home at 1.00pm, good leisurely ride via the Coorong & across the punt at Wellington.

Good to catch up with some old and many new faces again.

Look foward to the ride report Alan.

It a wonder the bike would run Alan seeing how you never put that stuff in it normally

Been there before though normally by choice. Usually at United where the E10 (94 Ron) is cheaper than ULP.

I'll post our ride story later but the basics for OzStoc are that we had a total of 13 attend on 4 x 1300s, 3 x 1100s and two BMWs that I know of.

Sorry there's no flag for this as I forgot to get it from Peter.

Most of us stopped at the caravan park and two stopped at the hotel (STroppy and Chops). John bought four friends along which accounted for at least two of the beemers one of which was ex SAPOL.

We all got together at the hotel about 6pm with those of us from the caravan park walking the 5 or 10 minutes it took. It was about 7pm before the food was delivered and about 9:30 when most of us that stayed in the park left. Heather and I stayed for a free coffee with Chops and Stroppy and wandered back to the park a little later.

Note the cam was still on summer time when I took these so take of an hour from the time print.

Six to my left are:- STroppy, ppopeye, John G and three of his friends

Five to my right are:- Chops, Pete, aussiexs plus his wife (forget her name) and another of John's friends.

Plus this one to include Heather

After getting back to the park we had to finish making the bed up: Pete was still up as it was to early for him and me so we gas bagged while Heather tried to sleep. Music from a dance down in town was a bit noisy and kept her awake so Pete gave her some ear plugs.

I took this one of our campsite before we packed up.

We had a little bit of rain overnight and this some of it after it passed us

 ++. Thanks. Alan.  A good report.  Hopefully I can make the next ride.   The dentist chair was not fun.

None that I could see. I think garfish was the main seafood item other than maybe squid (calamari) or prawns on the menu.
